The Tri-Faith Commons is a 35-acre campus in Omaha, Nebraska that is home to the Tri-Faith Initiative (TFI). TFI consists of three Abrahamic faith groups (Judaism, Christianity, and Islam) who have chosen to establish a faith-based campus together that is committed a model for peaceful co-existence that builds on America’s promise of religious freedom and our desire for understanding through practicing respect, acceptance, and trust. The campus design is rooted in Abrahamic values shared across the three faiths such as the sacred role of water, the belief in God, the role of prayer, worship, and the importance of fellowship.
